Summary: Increasing "MAX_FILES" in HDF4 
Category: None
Group: None
Resolution: None


Initial Comment:
I'm not entirely sure why, but the base HDF4 library decided to set the maximum 
number of open HDF4 files to 32, an issue reported at 
http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/HDF .  Increasing the allowed number of 
simultaneously open HDF4 files would really help doing things like mosaicking 
MODIS files.  I'm requesting that you modify the hlimits.h file and modify the 
following line:
#   define MAX_FILE   32
to
#   define MAX_FILE   1024
(or something very high).  I can't imagine having compatibility problems with 
increasing this value, just less of a "safety" net.

Specifically, I want to be able to create global virtual mosaics of MODIS LAI 
files, and this requires opening > 100 MODIS HDF4 tiles at once.
